Since the wiki started, there's been a concept that common first names should be disambiguated to a list of people who have that name.  Hence, you'll find that articles like [[Peter]], [[Kevin]], [[David]], [[Emily]] and [[Hope]] all give lists of people (and sometimes places) that share those names.  But we've always stubbornly resisted when it comes to the very special name, ''Susan''.  Maybe it's because we know [[Susan Foreman]] isn't her real name, or because not ''enough'' people know that [[Susan Campbell]] is the name she did go by after marrying [[David Campbell]].  Whtever the reason, we've just let the number of references to Susan multiply into the hundreds.

Well, now that we've finally changed the article name to the proper [[Susan Campbell]], it's time to cut the ties to plain, old ''Susan''.
